3 years agomember and file level activity logs and audit?
A client have Dropbox Business Standard with 3 licenses. One license it's used by admin, the 2nd license it's used by group01 (3 members) and the final license it's used by group 02 (3 members).
We need to have a way to audit or generate reports for folder/file/members events. For example: new file created, rename, downloaded, shared, edited, deleted, restored, etc.
If we select a file, we can see the history and some of this info appears, but I don't find where I can just generate a report about a folder or team member. For example I want to know how many files deleted by member "X"...
In activity I don't see something like that.
I know there is an Advanced Business subscription including "audit logs with file event tracking". Any idea if this is what we need?
Anyone knows if we can see all activity from a member with Dropbox Standard? or we need Dropbox Advanced?
In admin console - activity, I don't see any file events at all, already try all filters, only login, logout, security events, etc.
Any suggestion?
Hey Alexis G.1, thanks for raking the time to post here today.
Activity on file operations such as adding/editing/deleting/downloading files etc. is indeed only accessible to Dropbox Business Advanced/Enterprise plans.
In your case, perhaps the events page might provide some further info.
Let me know if you have other questions.
